This fact was discovered by a careful user who noticed that the comments on the same video were different for him and his wife.
Especially in the video where the conflict between a man and a woman took place, the man saw comments supporting the male side, while the woman was faced with the comments supporting the female side.
This confirms that TikTok’s algorithms now influence not only the videos you see, but also the views you see in the comment section.
This innovation has caused concern among users, who fear that such personalization could lead to the creation of an “information cocoon”. In these ‘cocoons’ people will see only what confirms their own views, and this will reinforce the polarization of views.
